Pea, Fennel and Goat Cheese Salad

 IMG_2481

 
 
Note: This is such an easy salad for the summer, I would suggest making extra dressing and mixing up the green vegetables here and there for variety. Grilled salmon on top will make this a full meal!
 
Servings: 4

1-1/2 cups shelled fresh peas
6 cups fresh baby spinach
1 bulb fennel, thinly sliced
1/3 cup crumbled soft goat cheese

Dressing:
2 tbsp (30 mL) extra-virgin olive oil
1 tbsp (15 mL) lemon juice
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1/4 tsp granulated sugar

In saucepan of boiling salted water, blanch peas for about 2 minutes. Drain and pat dry.

In large bowl, whisk together oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper and sugar. Add spinach, fennel and peas to dressing.

Toss everything together gently to coat and sprinkle with goat cheese.
